In just a few years, Switzerland has fallen from first to fifth place in the Global Competitiveness Index. The country is also losing ground in various subindexes, such as that for information and communication technologies, where it ranks 15th. Other studies highlight further weaknesses.

However, the country still sits proudly at the top of the Global Innovation Index.
